Hello, names Leo, new and old to linux, its been about 10 years since I last used linux.
I collect controllers, and with my recent change to linux on my new Pc, (endeavourOs) I really want to be able to utilise my controllers, despite knowing that there is no native support for them. The current controllers I own range from Gamesir, 8bitdo, ZD, Beitong, flydigi, majong and more. they are all “3rd party” controllers anyway, so they mostly utilise xinput or other types of inputs. however I am currently running into a weird issue with my ZD ultimate legend, all my other controllers connect normally to their dongle and can perform inputs (mainly tested on team and gamepadtester.) however my ZD ultimate legend does not respond at all when connected to its dongle.
It connects wired and has inputs but once switched to dongle it does not work at all, its on, but no inputs is registered, despite me trying xpad, xpadneo, xpadnoone, xone, xboxdrv, xow, and other “solutions” they did not allow for my controller to work. I thought it was the dongles issue, so I reverted its firmware to an older one on my windows parition and still nothing.
I wouldnt be asking for help, if the fact the same controller has been reported to work in bazzite and other distros.
I would really like some help, to learn about the issue and how to tackle it, if any one can help that would be greatly appreciated. Due to my profession im not usually near my pc or have the ample time to learn about linux as I should, but Ive come so far with this build and would like to continue using linux and learning more about it.
Thank you in advance, if you have any questions please dont hesitate.
